After reading the Wired article, <a href="http://www.wired.com/2015/02/on-the-joy-of-mastery">Why We Should Design Some Things to
|
||||
Be <i>Difficult</i> to Use</a>, I finally realize that Emacs <i>should</i> be hard
|
||||
to use, and we really should just give up changing it to be easier
|
||||
for new-comers.
|
||||

This quote sums up my 20 year experience with Emacs:
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<blockquote>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
[Fujifilm took] the controls out of deep menu functions and putting
|
||||
them back on chrome knobs that just beg to be twiddled.
|
||||
</p>

I bought a Fujifilm X100 two years ago. It was the first piece of
|
||||
technology I’d bought in 15 years where I had to read the
|
||||
manual. Actually, I’ve read the manual at least four times. Now I’m
|
||||
taking the best pictures of my life, and I love it. By being hard to
|
||||
use, my X100 made me a better photographer.

Seems like Emacs users are now in some elite club where the hazing
|
||||
ritual amounts to learning Lisp. Consequently, I’ve decided to start
|
||||
signing all my Emacs-related correspondence with:
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<blockquote>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Yours in Emacs,
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Howard
